Hi wingie, and thanks for commeting. I indeed had a look at LiveScript, it's a very interesting project. What finally drove me far from it was: - Small community (for now, I understand everything has to start somewhere), so in terms of being able to solve doubts, long term future of the language, or look at other code it would be harder. - With Clojure & ClojureScript I learn a language which has many more applications than a JS one, and which is having a lot of effort behind it. Of the languages in the style of CoffeScript, Roy, etc... LiveScript was the one that I liked the most and I think is a great project. But I was preferring something more widespreaded. I really am liking learning Clojure... we'll see how this all plays out when the time to write some web apps comes around. I'll keep this group posted ;). Thanks!
